Can anyone suggest a decent, natural replacement for the egg? I''m vegan, and I refuse to use nasty things like ''egg replacement''. Thanks! :D

Oh forgot to mention... I served these with a dab of Black Swan skinny hommus and a splash of tabasco sauce on top, with a side salad with balsamic/soy sauce dressing. I recommend it :)

Fantastic taste... Couldn''t find soy beans so i used 400g of firm tofu. Turned out great!
